Some aspects of this site may not be perfect for everyone but this is more than made up for by its great location. A grass pitch in very changeable weather in late September may be avoided by many in this age of hard standings but for us with a caravan it was not a problem. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay particularly the easy walk into Warwick, walking around the racecourse with the dogs and even the supermarket is in walking distance.
There are many other places to visit in the area with Stratford only a few miles away and the rest of the Cotswolds easily accessed by road. The wardens could not have been more helpful and the facilities very clean.
Stopover - Good for Visiting Warwick
We stayed a couple of nights, the site is compact and busy and has a temporary feel to it. Its great for visiting Warwick Town (Walkable) with its many resturants and good range of shops. Warwick Castle is also a great day out,the Archery and Bird demonstrations are not ot be missed - a full day (10 - 4). Staff at the site were efficient and kindly offered 2 for one CAMC vouchers which made what would have otherwise been an expensive day out, good value.
Holiday stay
Stayed here for five nights, in August 2017. Wish we had never bothered. Unfriendly welcome from owners and trouble with gypsys, trying to get on site.
Owners through out the stay not friendly and had a go at my wife because she forgot the code for the lock on the gate.
Pitches not very tidy and overall a waste of five days holiday.
Warwick a lovely town and visited castle, but would have stayed else where if we new about gypsys trouble in advance.
Lovely stay
Like all club sites it is pricey but at least it is in a very good position. Easy walk into Warwick and the Castle. We stayed 2 days, at the end of July, with friends and were fortunate with the weather. I had requested hard standing (because we were in motorhomes) but didn't realise this meant you were actually on a car park. For the two nights it didn't really matter but, if we go again, I would request a grass pitch.

Good site for dogs but!
The hard standing pitcheson on this site are on the tarmack car park, and although they overlook the grandstands these pitches are no the most picturesque.
The big problem for me as a caravaner though is the lack of a service point at the farm end of the site! There only being one grey water disposal point (by the entrance) means a long treck with the waste hog, also the drinking water point is recessed so you have to lift the full aguaroll up before starting back on the long walk back.
.
When we stayed there was a cycle event starting at the racecourse and the track round the outside of the site was used by cars arriving at 7am as a cross-country race track, no no peacefully lie in for us.
The plus point however is the ability to let the dog run in the fields behind the site.
Lovely stay at Warwick Racecourse
Recently spent 4 nights over the August bank holiday weekend at this site. Had a lovely relaxing short break, so close to Warwick and the river. Pitched overlooking the racecourse which was something different and really nice. Would recommend the walk to Hatton Locks. A quite easy walk and the pub at the top of the 21 locks is well worth a visit, although a little expensive it has lovely views. Directions for the walk available from the site reception. Am sure we will visit again.

Lovely Site
I stayed here for a week whilst attending a conference at Warwick University, it gave me enough distance to reflect and relax.
On arrival we were warmly welcomed and nothing was too much trouble. My partner stayed the first night then the last weekend, the pricing was sorted no problem.
The site is immaculate thanks to the wardens, I stayed 7 nights and not once was there an issue.
It's a fabulous location for Warwick and other attractions, there is a dog walk next door and a micro brewery and fantastic chippy in walking distance.
Well worth a visit.

EXCELLENT SITE
Just spent 2 nights on this site - perfect for visiting Warwick and Warwick Castle both within walking distance, and good public transport links to nearby Stratford upon Avon and Leamington Spa , and further afield. The wardens are really great, approachable, friendly and extremely helpful. The shower/toilet facilities are pristine and no matter what time of day always smelled as if they had just been cleaned. Excellent walks adjacent to the campsite for walking dogs

Overnight stay
What a little haven we found for an overnight stay on our return journey from Portsmouth to Manchester. The wardens were so welcoming and helpful. Thankyou. Our little boy loved riding on his bike around the place. We wished we could have stayed longer as there seemed to be lots of places of interest so we will definitely return. The old four penny shop hotel just up the road was fabulous for our evening meal. we were made very welcome. We look forward to seeing you again soon.

A really nice site with lovely site wardens.
Just spent a lovely weekend at this site, wasn't sure at first as it was like parking on a big car park but it actually turned out to be really good as our granddaughter spent ages on her scooter.
Sandra and Bernie the club wardens are two of the nicest wardens you will meet and a credit to the club. We will be looking to return later in the year as Warwick was a great weekend place to visit and the restaurants are good as well.
